Relief in Current Events

I had anxiety about going to class today. We were told to take it easy this weekend so I didn’t study any of the material. I didn’t feel ready enough and when we reviewed the material, I was definitely not prepared enough. I will have a nice long study session tomorrow evening.

I also talked to my teacher about registering for more courses. The biology course that I want is not available in the evenings. I will save that for last. I took it in high school but I need a refresher. What I need most is chemistry. It was recommended that I start with 30S chemistry because 40S will be hard enough. That doesn’t start until September. I am available to take the 40S course in February and my teacher was willing to take me to talk to the chemistry teacher about what I need to study on my own so that I don’t drown taking 40S. I really need to master that subject so I will start from scratch.

There is a new course available that my teacher recommended after I mentioned that I wanted to take an English because I am out of touch with writing essays, etc. I already took every English course in high school so something new would be better. There will be a lot of reading and writing so she took me over to the teacher who assured me that I would get what I need out of his course. I am looking forward to his course because I love writing. I don’t know how to describe what his course is about but it involves history and philosophy and something else. Talking about ideas, I’m here for it.

I feel more relaxed now that I know that I don’t have to make any sacrifices to go back to school. I mentioned my lack of an action plan regarding post-secondary. I know what I will need from high school to get the doctorate I seek, generally speaking. I don’t know where to get it from, however. My teacher made the obvious recommendation to speak with a naturopath (my career goal). I have been putting that off so I think it is high time that I do that. There is only one that I know of that I trust. She is out of town but not crazy far. She doesn’t play germ theory. She doesn’t play con-19.

I go to class early and before it started Kelli asked me what my age was. I told her that I turn 37 next month. There were only 4 of us and our teacher and they all reacted the same way everyone else does when they discover my age. Disbelief. That’s when Kelli mentioned that she is also a Capricorn. I told her that I thought she was a Virgo. Amanda asked me what I thought she was and I said Gemini. She is a Taurus. Once we bring up astrology I’m all in. I got the times they were born so that I could see what their ascendants were and sure enough, Kelli is a Virgo rising and Amanda is a Gemini rising. I explained to them that a rising is our personality. Our sun sign is our soul, our character. Then I went down the list of what the planets represent in the birth chart and sent them on their way to learn about what their charts say. I’m pretty good at guessing. I got a lot of Venus energy from my teacher and I thought she was a Taurus or Libra. She’s a Scorpio. I calculated her birth chart and she is a Libra rising.

Anyway, off to bed. I’m tired of being tired during the day but I always end up staying up too late. Accidentally binged a show yesterday on Disney+ called Parallel. It was pretty alright.
